Have:
Prana Nemesis Knickers - Size M(Khaki color, I don't think this color is available anymore)
I bought these a while back; it finally warmed up enough to wear shorter pants. I wear a L and it's too late to get a refund.
These are tried on, but never worn. I'll try to get some pics up in a bit.

Looking for:
-Same or comparable in a L
-Ultegra/SRAM 1070 12/27 cassette

waynesworld 04-22-11 10:19 AM

I have a Delta Super Sherpa rack that I can't seem to find a use for. It's just a bit too short and low for my liking, though it is light and seems very strong. I'm not really looking for anything in particular.

I'll play....I'll post pics and more stuff later.

2011 Surly CrossCheck 56cm frame with less than 100 miles on it. Black in color and has an FSA "the Pig" headset. - trade for frames like Karate Monkey (M-L), Long Haul Trucker (58), Vaya (58), Fargo (M-L), etc.

Brand new Brooks B68 black w/chrome springs. Ridden maybe 50 miles. - Looking for Salsa or Surly racks and maybe nice panniers?

Pm me if interested. Also would sell outright

RT 04-25-11 10:32 AM

Barrett, I think to stick to the rules of the site we need to keep this as a for trade thread, not for selling outright.

Andy, I have two TA's in great shape that are just sitting around. PM sent.

xtrajack 04-27-11 08:59 AM

Is there any particular reason why the for trade thread couldn't become a Buy, Sell, Trade thread?

On another forum that I frequent, they have a Buy,Sell,Trade thread. I am not aware of any issues. They do have a set of rules regarding behavior on that thread.
I remember buying a 50+ jersey from a member here. I don't actually remember how that came about.
I also wouldn't mind being able to offer cashy money for bike items that I could use, as opposed to being limited to just trade only.

For example: I am interested in the accessory bar posted above, but I don't have anything that he is looking for---I could however, trade cashy money (actually Paypal) for it.....

I just discovered that there is a separate For Sale thread, and a seprate Want to Buy thread, on a separate sub forum. I don't usually go to that sub forum.
I always check the commuting sub forum.
If there is some commuter gear that some one is looking to dispose of, there is a better chance of me seeing it here, as opposed to it only being listed in the For Sale subforum.

RT 05-24-11 12:31 PM

Have: Felt Albert (mustache-like) handlebar. Took off my new 2009 Felt X:City-D
8 speed flat bar shifter (rear) and Tektro brake levers that came off the same bike
8 speed triple front derailleur (off a BD bike), take-off

Need: 31.8 clamp stem 1 1/8 threadless 90mm-110mm, black or white
Road saddle along the lines of a Nashbar GR-2, not too heavily used

And want to trade for lumbar pack or rack trunk.

If anyone has a similar road double that isn't Octolink compatible, I'd be down to trade BBs as well, 68x118.

Pletscher Twin Leg Kickstand, colored black; will trade for any 700c/road bike length rear mount kickstand, preferably colored black but will also accept silver, chartreuse, burberry, or day-glo zebra print.

I have a black Greenfield SKS2 Stabilizer kickstand if you're interested in swapping. It's the kind that mounts between the seatstays and chainstays. I bought it for my LHT but couldn't use it due to the dropouts and spare spoke holders.
Thanks.

waynesworld 07-02-11 11:05 PM

I also have a like new (approx. 40 miles, then removed) WTB Rocket V saddle. I replaced it on my 2010 Kona Jake that I got a couple months back, after two or three rides. Thing was like torture to me, but it has to fit someone.

Still no specific needs, I just have no use for it.

TysonC 07-03-11 12:16 PM

I just put a my commuting light set on ebay. It's a magicshine mj 816 w/ the mj 818 tail light and battery/charger/etc. It's a geoman gear set up, too. I want $150 for all of it but I'll take it down if anybody around CFL has a good longboard for trade - I've got cash to add.

Check out a pic and what not here - http://cgi.ebay.com/Magicshine-mj-81...item2a1202b85c

Any interest in trading for a track/triple gear sling bag, timbuk2 mess bag and Swiss Army laptop backpack? I've got these three sitting around and need a bigger bag. Wouldn't mind doing a three for one trade.

Lucky for you that I have a bag fetish. PM sent.

Hey man. I tried to PM you back, but I'm too new a member, apparently. Email me - obxpander@yahoo.com - I can tell you more about these bags.

RidingMatthew 09-05-11 09:10 AM

Do you have some old panniers that are in decent shape but you haven't used in a while?
I am looking for some panniers to get my self started with bicycle commuting. (12 miles one way) My wife says that I can't buy the bags from anywhere right now. If someone would trade me something for the bags I would really appreciate it. I think I want to get a set of bags for my rack. I think I can get a set of Louis Garneau beta bb_46 rear panniers for $45 from performance. Is that a good deal? what do you think?

***
update bought the panniers and well attempt my first bike commute tomorrow morning!

rhm 09-19-11 12:12 PM

I'm looking for ruined leather saddles, like Brooks, Wrights, Ideale, &c. I'm learning to put new leather on them. I have all kinds of stuff to trade....

EdgewaterDude 09-20-11 07:21 AM

Looking to trade a nearly mint Chrome Metropolis for a cycling backpack. Turns out my shoulder isn't suited to the one strap style.

Will trade for

Chrome Ivan, Chrome Yalta, Chrome Backbone, Chrome Brigadier, Chrome Ranchero, Chrome Pawn, Chrome Falcon, Chrome Romer.

Or an Ortlieb, possibly.

So, pretty much any decent sized cycling backpack.

Ridefreemc 09-20-11 09:59 AM

To Give:

- Shimano Ultegra crank (double chainring) from my Trek 5200 (went to a compact).
- A lightweight set of 26 inch rims laced into carbon fiber hubs with double butted spokes (if interested let me know and I will go to the storage unit to get the brand names).
- Brand new Kelty messenger bag in dusty blue.
- FSA carbon fiber drop bars (very light). Flat on top for more hand comfort.

To Get (one or more, but not expecting all):

Front rack for fork mounting
Small front panniers
Trunk bag

RT 09-20-11 01:09 PM

Have: Axiom disc-compatible rear rack, never mounted but missing hardware.

Need: Almost everything for two cross/road builds:

Compact drop bars, 31.8
80mm or 90mm 1 1/8" stem, 31.8 clamp
Carbon cross fork, non-disc
Any 10 speed cassette
Any 10 speed chain
9/10 speed rear derailleur
Black or white saddle, in good shape

Lightly used Black 54 cm Surly Cross Check frame.

Looking for shiny VO parts, leather saddle, panniers or other bags, tools.

what year is it? can I put a rack on the front, as in the 2011 models? and what are you looking for? or how much do you want? (not that I need or want a new CC but I am convinced I should have a bought a size smaller)

amgarcia 10-03-11 11:07 AM

I'm pretty sure its a 2009 version, which means it doesn't have eyelets on the fork.
I'm looking for shiny VO parts, a leather saddle, panniers or some other kind of bags, bicycle tools, maybe a front rack as well.

I think the forks are all the same size, so you could take your current fork (if its the 2011) and put it on this CC. I think that's the only difference.

I'm looking for about $320 worth of trades. Post once more and PM me if you'd like.

I don't think I have $320 worth of spare parts. Just my panniers and Brooks Flyer and I love those. I've been looking to trade in my 56cm for a 54cm. It's going to cost me about $200, $150 for dis-assembly and assembly of new bike + $110 depreciation on my 2011 frame minus the cost of a new 54cm frame which I've found for as low as $405. I'm going to post a thread about the idea later. I'm just waiting for an expensive repair as an excuse or maybe a new awesome color.

kiltedcelt 10-03-11 08:23 PM

I've got a few items I would be willing to trade.

I have a Timbuk 2 messenger bag with shoulder pad (it's the really large size)
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-2...0/DSC_0018.JPG

Also a Velo Senso Sport saddle with cro-mo rails and air suspension

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-_...0/DSC_0222.JPG
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-P...0/DSC_0228.JPG

I also have a Transit trunk rack (water resistant) and a seatpost clip-on rack, which I think is Transit as well. I can supply pics of these last two if anyone is interested.

2 Kenda Quick roller Sport tires 700x28 with kevlar beads and go up to 85 psi

Stuff I'm interested in:
26" mountain bike rigid fork with 1" threaded steerer
under seat bag with quick-disconnect hardware
handlebar bag with clear map pocket on top
Suntour XC Pro grease guard wheel hubs, or other Suntour XC Pro mtb stuff
whatever else - you have something you think it cool to trade let me know and I'll consider it

tsktsk 10-05-11 10:25 PM

I wish I had cool stuff, but hey, I just started biking. And, out of my novice knowing of bike stuff, I went out and got a shock pump thinking the high psi were to get pumping faster, whoops!

I have:
Topeak Pocket Shock DXG Fork & Shock Pump with gauge

I want:
A bottle cage
Any speedometer computer

This thread seems large for my little trade type items, hehe.

GriddleCakes 10-18-11 06:43 PM

I've got a set of 40-622 (700 x 38c) Schwalbe Marathon tires with one summer's worth of light use that I would love to trade for the same in 37-622 (700 x 35c).

no1mad 10-25-11 03:06 PM

Nevermind.

nubcake 11-07-11 11:47 PM

I no longer have a drop bar bike and have some lightly used bar mits for drop bars and would love to trade for poggies on my flat bar bike. email is best, chriskmurray at gmail dot com
